Coverage should include everything from track build and rider preparation to packed stands, racing action, podium celebrations, and what happens after the checkered flag.
The goal is to create content that makes someone who wasn't at the event feel like they missed something — and makes them want to attend the next round.

The Series Videographer should bring their own creative vision while maintaining the overall identity of the AMA Partzilla National Arenacross Championship.
Content should feel
Fast. Raw. Professional. Emotional. Authentic.
